Sad Song
I think the hardest thing
Is to forgive yourself
Regret is like the wings
That choke life's roses
But I see wonder in the plain
And I grow strong on what remains
And the winter I sustain my song
There is no easy answer
That I can provide
My love is like a cancer
That turns me black inside
And though it rages like the sea
Takes the piss right out of me
It still doesn't die
It doesn't die
Now at last I've come to see
What life is
My regret flows all through me
Like sad, sad music
And you can run as far
As lungs can take you
But you are your past
And nothing lasts
I found the hardest thing
Is to live with your words
And all the might have beens
And myself
But I find comfort in the pain
And I am humbled and ashamed
And in your presence
I remain so strong
And though it rages like the sea
Take the piss right out of me
Still it doesn't die
It doesn't die
And you can run as far
As lungs can take you
But you are your past
And nothing lasts
And you can run as far
As lungs can take you
But you are your past
And nothing lasts
Oh, nothing ever lasts
